So I want many of them to show up, just not ALL of them.
Hmmm. Any chance of a transit strike in your area?
That goes double when fully half the employees make a profession out of being bored.
Wait, you mean I could do this professionally? This opens up broad new vistas of job opportunities for me.

Ha! That would mean five people would show.
Nah, I'm sure it will be fine, and everyone will have a seat. I just hate the idea that potentially cranky people will have my name.
OMG and the guy who is apparently incapable of spelling out "please"? I'm going to cut him. Seriously. He can apparently only type "pl."

Misinterpret it for maximum embarassment (his). People, place, placate, plate, platypus, pleasure, plankton . . .
"Dear Asshat Coworker. I've attempted to interpret your non-standard abbreviations. Please explain what "pleather" has to do with our work flow management problems?"
You would be tragically wrong.
And this just made me think of tragically lickable John. Mm.

Ah. Yet another reason I haven't gotten much done today.
Because it's a better option than flying to Chicago and bludgeoning the people I'm working with.
Outsource. I've got some time free this afternoon, plus some residual rage from last week that I could stand to work out on someone.
Timelies,
Welcome back, Aimee.
Can this day be over yet? Working the help desk this week and it's IT Week, so in addition to all the normal tech support calls, I'm getting all the calls from people who can't figure out how to do the IT Week activities on the Intranet. Couple that with the majority of the activities involving a mailto link at their completion and for some unknown reason about 10% of our users PCs absolutely refuse to open Outlook from within IE, despite all the settings in Outlook and IE saying that Outlook is the default mail client and the one to use, and instead try to use Outlook Express, which of course is not configured because we don't use it. The only solution to this problem so far seems to be to reinstall Outlook. The old change the settings to something else, reboot, change them back to what they should be trick that often works in cases like this isn't cutting it. And I have 4 more days on the phones to look forward to. Ugh.
